Delhi court grants bail to RJD chief Lalu, sons in land-for-jobs case

A Delhi court on Monday granted bail to Rashtriya Janata Dal head and former Bihar chief minister Lalu Prasad, his sons Tejashwi Yadav and Tej Pratap Yadav in a land-for-jobs case.

Special Judge Vishal Gogne of the Rouse Avenue Court granted the relief to the RJD leaders on a personal bond of ₹1 lakh each, noting that they were not arrested during the investigation.

The next hearing on the case is on October 25.

Lalu Prasad, Tejashwi Yadav and Tej Pratap Yadav appeared before the Delhi court in pursuance to



summons issued to them by the court earlier. 

The judge had issued the summons after taking cognisance of a supplementary charge sheet against the accused persons.

The final report was filed before the court by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on August 6.

The ED filed its case based on an FIR lodged by the CBI.

“They keep indulging in political conspiracy. They misuse agencies. There is nothing concrete in this case. Our victory is certain...,” Tejashwi Yadav said.
